Waiting to check into for our flight out of BWI. We had around 30 pieces of luggage we took with us.
Baby Isabella....we are in love.
We are standing on a hill looking into the city dump. The stench was unbearable. If you look close you can see people picking through the trash.
The city cemetery. The poor had just a slot while the rich had huge monuments just for 1 person.
Again, the shortage of beds led to kids napping on the floor.
This is Katherine and she stole my heart as soon as I picked her up. She wrapped her arms around me and would not stop hugging me. I could've held her all day.
There are not enough beds at Mama Carmen's so the kids are tied into high chairs to nap.
This is one of my favorite pics from our trip. This kid did not stop smiling the whole time Lane was giving him a shoulder ride.
Two of many adorable faces we saw in Guatemala.
These are some of the older girls from the AIDS Hospice Orphanage.
This is the ghetto where our leader Ashlee lives. There are numerous ghettos around the city.
It is very normal to see military and guards carrying sawed off shotguns. It was quite unsettling to see.
Our friend at Hannah's Hope. We got her a shirt to match Makenzie which she thought was pretty cool.
One of the many homes we saw on our travels.
We saw a lot of women carrying their things on their heads. I don't know how they do this.
Our transportation back to the mudslide kids.
The women doing their laundry in the lake with special minerals found in the water.
Playing ball with the mudslide kids.
Temporary housing the government gave these families after they lost everything in the mudslide.
Eating lunch with 10 of the mudslide kids.
This family opened up their home and cooked us a fabulous meal despite the kitchen they have in their house.
This is the family that lost their home in the mudslide.
The city dump.
All of us with Elmer and Dervin, on the left, in his new outfit.
Meet 2 week old baby Andreas...who Karen would love to bring home.
